University of CaliforniaPh.D. Dissertations in Italian Studies at UCLA, 2007–2019 We offer this list both as a bibliographic reference and as a testament to the enduring scholarly interest of Italian studies. Many of these dissertations were written in the Department of Italian at UCLA—which, as of December 2020, has merged with the Department of European Languages & Transcultural Studies—but also span other disciplines including History, Sociology, Education, and Music, to name a few. We will continue to supplement this list in future volumes, and we hope that this information will serve as an important reference and inspiration to scholars of Italian and European studies in the future. 2020 Cantor, Sarah. “The Orphan-Hero in Italian Renaissance Epic.” Director: Andrea Moudarres. 2020.
